Haines, Alaska.
It’s on some smaller cruise ship itineraries & a few miles from Skagway via ferry, boat or ship. You can also drive into Haines.
Yesterday we drove down to Haines for a couple days in hopes that we would see a grizzly bear. 🐻 On our Alaska trip we have seen only one grizzly and it was in the Yukon. We have seen a total of 6 black bear in Alaska and one was a mom with triplets. So we had hopes we could still catch our Alaska grizzly.
But then….Haines did not let us down! We saw several bear last night and got the best show ever when Lulu and her year old Quadruplets made their appearance. Seeing this is very rare, as not many have quadruplets AND making it more rare is the fact that this momma has been able to keep all four alive and healthy for the last year. We encountered a few more bear as well.
